ukraine. i've been here pretty much, is the war started just talking to people sharing stories. it's got wrenching to be honest and watching, you know, says response across the country are drones, alina and galena. i line up. ok. so if you are watching on youtube and you would like to ask them specific questions about youngsters and children from ukraine, comment section is right here, answer questions or comments in that i will wrap them up in today show. i'm james. i used the statistic that came basically from unit that every 2nd of every day, a child from ukraine becomes a refugee, or they are displaced. that is a huge number. we're talking about world war 2 numbers here. yes, i mean, it's mind boggling. i am often really reluctant to be honest to use numbers. i don't think big numbers bring big compassion. this one though, i saw the chart you talking about in for 5 weeks. don't forget, 6 weeks ago,

the vast majority this entire country kids were in playground at school with grandparents moms walking brands, kids in schools now wanting to every single boy and girl in this country's been displaced by the war. and when we say this place, let's not forget, we're talking about under bombardment, we're talking about boys and girls. you know, running to bunkers no school. the lesson today is this is one of their rates are and sounds like quit flee bed to a bunker. that's what displacement looks like. and yeah, the numbers we have not seen in living memory, not since world war 2. and what does it look like where you all think done? i didn't. i didn't get a question. yeah. what does it look like, james? just describe what it is like for children just in the past few weeks had a life been turned upside down. so were you on ukraine? how a children function, how are they doing? well, i will speak to you more about families, not specifically children,

because we are targeting adults. are young children, older like elderly people, everybody, all the categories of people. actually the situation is different in different parts of ukraine. what we see in the east, this is something horrible. this is a humanitarian calamity. because a people including children, have to stay in bomb shelters. unfortunately, i have, i will have to speak about horrible things. they have to stay there under constant sharing and bombing because if they go outside their bunk shelters, they will be killed on the streets immediately. and they have to stay there without food, water, electricity, of course, not well, connection and anything. so the situation is horrible. what we see in the close to the center of the west of ukraine. this in message for loans of people are trying to find a place here. we are talking about those 6500000 of internally displaced people, women and children from the ukraine. they have such

a possibility and we try to support them organizing center places for them. men have to stay in the country because of the marshal. well, that is why needs are different in different parts of ukraine. for instance, if you need to cross the border to leave the country to western western countries, you have to stay at the border crossing point for a couple of days up to 4 days. it was at the very beginning of the conflict escalation. and these were mothers and children without anything would with world close anything. so we are trying to do our best to support people in the west, in center and on the bombing which has its challenges for us. of course, when i'm thinking that the children and families are playing to keep their kids safe, but we can't keep them safe and mental stress and mental trauma. talk to us about that and what you're able to do and what you're trying to help with youngsters with

families who are displaced right now. well as the ukrainian red cross, now we do not have a messy response in terms of support of a mental health. yeah. i mean, i was going to share that with galena because that is exactly how she, i'm just going to share it with you. okay. panelists galena, go ahead. yes, absolutely. and somehow how did, when all that these would happen? and that's exactly what we started working on and right away, trying to put together the grass roots pulling on personal connections, pulling together a list of people who would be able to step in, but not necessarily in place because he graham colleagues are also overwhelmed. they need support, so people are from a broad step in and frank through the 4th in line and we were inventing things for

days. we were inventing things coming up with the leaflets. and i met with parents . i think it was they think so the word that was my 1st meeting with a with a group of parents in keith and they overwhelmed me with questions i had no answer because in my professional life here and i work in some crisis situations with forced 911 families, of course then the in york, seated. i never saw anything like that. i don't know yet. now i know. what do you do when you're run there is a bombing. what do you do with the oldest child? if they have to go to a shelter above, the child was told that they cannot leave the apartment because it's venture is outside. what do you know? how do you come down? how do you help the mother come down? here comes down a lot of down regulation,

but people can't bound regulate and become because they can't afford to become the war. they in danger, they need to be hyper vigilance. but how do they do it with the key? how do they, how they keep coming out? so it's, it's really complex. i'm going to think and i think that it, no, i just think i am with you guys on a pretty heroic to like, ok, you cannot. i think elena was spot on to talk about when kids on in bunk isn't part of this country. that's what's happening. yeah. let's. they are being shy. i met a girl in a hospital here, levine 3 hours ago who 1314 who's been shot run has been through operations and. and now dealing with that for my father was shot. he's back and give but it's important to to speak to just this, you know, it's not keisha is who wrote level of ukrainians and as galena is saying, like in terms of what parents do to reduce that stress. i've seen thousands of

parents just hold it together even though in moms and dads, i kind of embracing that moment because i go to separate or parents who talk about that they tell their kids now don't why look the bombs, that's actually fi works. they try and dress it up in some sort of a gang recessing that yeah, i've seen that in syria. it's extraordinary. the length parents will go jobs. i've been doing autistic center. where again, the themes moms go through galena says i, your logo to see kids campaign bunk is because it's spice. they suddenly can't get with that noise. you've got these moms who, who find a way around it. so that level of heroic nature from the moms of this country or the grandparents will. busy and hearing or people trying to asian saying you've been writing housing snowed, you want to bed. that's extraordinary. but you feel is cumulate effect as well on people because you know, the, the missile on stopping. i'm gonna bring in a, a new voice into our conversation and that new voice comes from an organization

known as the casual foundation voices of children. we spoke to the had just a few hours ago. i haven't listened children react in the most understandable way. they ask and asked, why should i left my school? why should i left my room, my whole, my friends, and to be honest, we didn't know what to do with the answer to them and parents don't know what to do now. it. so we tried to give proper support, likes in psychology like a group sessions, individual sessions like full keats and for parents also to get them to give them the support to go through this time. very hard time. and to, to understand that there was, this can be normal life. and i can see you nodding at the best of times, young stairs want to know why, why is this happening? why is that there? why we doing this? how do you also the why question in a conflict?

well, it's a one to speak to chill. it's important to be honest, but it's a want to say something that the child would understand because the whole situation is mind boggling for adults as well. but they need to find simple words drawn from their child's vocabulary, to be able to explain, to say something that makes sense. and adding something new a little bit at a time. because that these children need to survive this war. these children is our future. future generations. it's scary to think about the future with so many trauma guys. he's with this whole nation from a dies with these kids are believing ukraine and kids and adults around them. also hearing these stories,

and this is secondary trauma professionals are from this to something good, just let out at me, james, and i'm just going to share this with all of our audience is on twitter here. this is a tweet from the united nations secretary general for predators and human traffickers . the war in ukraine is not a tragedy. it's an opportunity. and women and children are the targets. they urgently need safety and support every step of the way. so on top of the trauma, the stress, the living through conflict, there is a danger, an added danger, james. talk to us about that. what is eunice have able to do? that's how often do i ukrainian colleagues here and, and, and they do like 8 hours a day and in a few hours with their families, they to splice and, and cover our slate. if a, if anything is to keep a school awake at night it's trafficking. i'm trafficking exploitation look at the

end of the day. the way it is panned out. i get when i was in of it. it's a jumping off point to poland. so i spent a lot of time in that border which the early stage, his was 50 hello. ready ms of cars and sometimes 67 hours of people walking across in the snow. i so grand mom's grandmother that primes war he so you know, to 1000000 kids in the space of the mouth. now again, again, numbers a tricky syria crisis is horrendous and ongoing. it took 2 and a half years to reach the tragic milestone of a 1000000 kids 2 and a half years out of syria. it took 2 weeks here. so predators have this moment, there is in the borders which is open and that was the right thing to do at that moment. but we need now to get a protective space. they need robust policing. you need police forces to be combined organizations like, you know, so yeah, we train people. you're trying volunteers to know to look for to understand the people putting out sign saying, prod, berlin, warsaw, not all of them have good intentions. 99 percent do maybe 99.9 percent. still it's

problematic. so messaging, social media, radio, all those things. but let's be honest and he got full 1000000 people who fled and trafficking exists in europe. so it's a to her renders thought and policing is a big part of it. now, along with our half a 1000000 not. well, i cannot comment on this particular point because we're not human rights organization. we're like humanitarian organization. we understand of this problem exist between can we do not to invest our effort into it because we are more focused on physical security or mental situ radio people inside your crate? well, that's a good question too. in terms of coordination with our partners, because as you create recalls, we work inside ukraine. if we speak about outside ukraine to support it internally displaced people this, these are our partners in the polish risk red cross hungarian cross romanian

rituals. linda, because we have only the national mandate here in ukraine. we do not observe something very specific for this particular problem, but outside ukraine, when women and children of ukraine and go to other parts of other countries this, this is a problem. when i hear often when i speak to atlanta, is that there is, it's a partnership because you can't deal with everything. you can't deal necessarily with strategies for young children about what to know what they do, how they come with the war. you can't necessarily deal with trafficking, gillian, your thoughts on trafficking file. i'm just going to show something for our audience so that they know it's not completely hopeless. there's a campaign called the blue dots campaign, which a areas which would be along the border where a safe space is for families to go, where they know that they can stay safely, and that is run by unicef galena. go ahead. this idea about trafficking also. there were a number of

a lot of children's homes in ukraine. what happens to children's hubs during a conflict situation? oh wow. so many layers, but i do, i happen to know about blue dots about the early childhood initiative, but i don't really know. i don't know, i wouldn't know how are they directed? what happens there? and how can anyone direct and curve the late so many families speak in different directions and some how they make it to the water and then they cross the border and they kind of disappear. and i understand that countries, the early childhood center is definitely overwhelmed. i'm a part of the email thread and i can see how center is grumbling, not enough people to work with these kids to work, not enough people with language proficiency. and i wonder if families want to get

my wandering families know about the food up problem. james, well the way, yeah, look, the fed, the way the blue dots work is a day strategic pot across area. so you kind of can't miss them because it's when you go through a border or it's when you get to a training session. so they are in those kind of key key places for people offering services information amounted to bright vaccination services, and so on. and so they're in the strategic strategic places. but then we can, i just, you know, i just want to ask alina just on a personal little, one of the things it's mood, me the most here is i was out maternity hospital in levine. and this eric time and all who was down in the bunker again and there were leave pregnant women who were all pregnant as you alayna and. and it was really movie, you know, they, they've come from here and they've separated from family here. but they want to stay here, but they know that having babies the way and i know they have

a babies in war time and they're in bunk, is as well, by the way, one of these we're doing is as, you know, getting sergio from across the country because in this insanity, women having babies in bunkers, but i just want to ask you, if you don't mind like is a, are you a 1st time i'm a 2nd time? i'm how you feeling, as you cried in about 2, about to give birth an install this? well, this maternity leave, this maternity is very specific for me because i never thought it would be like this. either they this for the 1st time i'm pregnant for his time. i'm separated from my husband and from my father. they stayed in keith. i moved here in central ukraine. i do not have a possibility now to go on maternity leave because this is marcia law and her social security. things do not work properly now. so i do not have the possibility to leave my job and to have rest, which i definitely need because i am always all the time sleep i'm very tired. so i

have to continue working and i need her to continue working because we have this bigger emergency response. i do not have here problem medical follow up because the city is loaded with pregnant women from other bottle ukraine. we have long use at hospitals. i can give birth at any moment, but the only thing the thing that i'm thinking about things, god, i'm alive and i'm not in money. well, a story to mention that because you, you know, probably the attack on maternity hospital in kia, for instance, women are delivering babies in underground use as long shelters. so i'm more or less lucky, but without proper medical and social follow up, that's the problem. it, this is the thing, isn't it? this is what so disgusting in this in all was out there, old vicious but, but we talking like 70 plus medical and hospital facilities now being targets,

you know, that will be heat. that's not, that's not a normal number in any, when any level of kind of attacks in anything other than relentlessly in discriminant. so it seems to me, when i say, as you say, mary ball, but also cheney chain help have and other places it seems to me that that warfare is changed from here when we look at syria recently. and our children are constantly in the front lines and like you are pointing to the other that we keep saying medical facilities he or targeted, i'm certainly i see them being being protected now with levels of, you know, sandbagging and, and, and we even hear eunice if i've never seen a student anywhere else were reinforcing hospital bunkers in san to get a sense of, of just just how doc is has become. there's one more voice alone as split skis. melina, go ahead, go ahead. then i'm going to bring in one over by 11 commenter hear about hospitals

and targeting sitting and population. i do not think that there are, aren't conflicts a lake this particular one, or when the civilian population is the main target of the aggressor. we never saw, we never observed such domestic attacks on hospitals, and i'll get an infrastructure if we compare the numbers of casualties among the civil population and the armed forces of ukraine. so it's a, it's very representative. they mainly seeming of ablation tart, cleanup nation suffers from this armed conflict and in particular on medical infrastructure. that's horrible. so early we spoke to sir, here lucas shove, who told us about the work that he's doing down on the ground to make sure that children stay safe. he kind of killers, they say, i want to play his comment and then ask all of our guest is very briefly,

what do you need? what the families in ukraine still need? his say. those junior villages assist in education or children application from what? in the battle zones, at least 143 children are killed. probably much more. we are receiving the very disturbing reports of all the must rapes all the different girls in the occupy jones. you seem reported thousands of children from where you pull s around in area are being deported was of papers was organization to russia and the disappearing nation for their families. 1000000 and a half of june already brought and our nation is losing future. children should be with family, was in asia, in a closing moment of our show galena alena james name, one thing that children and families need in ukraine killing the go ahead. well,

before i do that, i have a comment about what we just saw because wrong 7 days ago and an old b y o. we were asked to develop something coming from psychologist, also the women to be used as their guide to behavior in occupied seated alina. i'm going to give you the last word because are right at the end of the show, general finish that sentence out to be dress how to behave and how not to be rate, which is unthinkable. and this is the big word from you will be saved. all right, safety i alaina. we wish you every luck and success with your new baby. thank you for both of you being on the street today. refilled, doubly bless, james angelina. thank you for sharing some insight into how war is impacting the children in ukraine and of course their families. thanks for watching. i see you next time take
